I walked into then doors of UCLA. My new home for the next couple years. I've always been so afraid to leave the comfort of my own home but I figure this Is a chance for me to experience new things.
My mom , dad, sister and I all walked up to the front desk.
"What's your name darlin'" the secretary smiled at me.
"Roxy. Roxy Hunter." I smiled back.
"Ah ha! There you are" she scrolled through her computer. "Your room is 727, on the 3rd floor of section 3."
"Thanks." I smiled,
My family helped me bring my belongings up to my dorm. When we arrived my roommate was already there.
"Hi ! I'm Elizabeth , but you can call me Lizzie or Liz ." She giggled.
"I'm Roxy." I shook her hand.
My dad set my stuff down.
"Well." My mother swallowed trying to hold back tears. "I guess this is it"
"I guess so." I walked over and have her a big hug.
"I love you" she said softly.
"Love you too mom."
My sister opened her arms wide. I also gave her a hug. "Be good" I told her.
"Always am." She replied.
"Dad.."
He looked like he was fighting back tears.
"I'll be back on thanksgiving ! I promise," I smiled.
"I'm gonna miss you sweetie." He hugged me until I could hardly breathe.
"I'll miss you too dad.. I love you."
"I love you too honey."
Before I knew it they were out the door.
I began to unpack my things.
"Need any help?" Liz asked while picking up a box,
"Sure." I smiled.
"You must be a freshman ." She giggled.
"Yeah . How'd you know?" I laughed.
"Most parents only get chocked up the first year." She smiled.
"What year are you on?" I asked.
"I'm on my 3rd. Just gotta get through this year then next then I'm done for good"
I laughed. Soon we were done unpacking.
"Wanna get some coffee.?" Liz asked.
"Sure!"
We made our way down to the campus Starbucks. After we we got our coffees we sat down. I looked up as I smelt cologne and cigarettes. A tall male with curly brown hair and green eyes walked past. As I took a closer look I noticed his tattoos an piercing.
Liz caught me looking at him.
"Don't get involved with him.."Liz said whiles taking a sip of her coffee.
"Oh . W-why?" I asked. My eyes still glued on him."
"He's no good for anyone. Trust me."
"What's his name?"
"Harry. Harry Styles. He's in is second year here. But Roxy, seriously, don't get involved."
"Ok ok. I won't ."
Harry walked past us again and his eyes were locked on me. As he walked outside with his friends I watched him through the glass of the coffee shop. He caught me looking . He winked and walked away.
"Oh no." Liz said burying her face in her hands.
"Roxy. If he approaches you just don't .. Don't speak to him . Please."
"Alright Liz I won't."
Why was she trying to protect me from him. What had he done..?
